Introduction Eternal Terra Ear New Society (ETENS) is a fluid post-intellectual collective questioning comfort in times of crisis. We weave a social–architectural core across cultures, ecologies, and technologies, creating spaces where fragility becomes fertile. Through experimental infrastructures, symposiums, knowledge-making, and curated projects, we bring together cultural practitioners to prototype cooperative models of practical and resilient care, clarifying burden, especially within communities of the global majority facing ongoing disruptions and developmental debt. Driven by post-extractivist ideals, ETENS reimagines a co-creative process rooted in mutual aid, feminist leadership, and cooperative sharing.

Crisis Economy Framework

Our ongoing project, Crisis Economy: Synaesthetic Archive, Self-Reliance, and Post-Humanitarian Infrastructure, anchors this programme. It investigates how war, migration, and extractive infrastructures fragment societies, and how cultural collectives can create mutual aid economies.

Through symposium & post-publication embedded in emerging technological analysis across fields, we test cultural formalization as cooperative governance.
